A land of vast distances and rich natural resources, Canada became a self-governing dominion in 1867 while retaining ties to the British crown. Economically and technologically the nation has developed in parallel with the US, its neighbor to the south across an unfortified border. Canada's paramount political problem is meeting public demands for quality improvements in health care and education services after a decade of budget cuts. The issue of reconciling Quebec's francophone heritage with the majority anglophone Canadian population has moved to the back burner in recent years; support for separatism abated after the Quebec government's referendum on independence failed to pass in October of 1995.

Vancouver,,, de mooiste stad van de wereld?

North America » Canada

Hey bloggers jullie zijn zeker blij nog eens iets te horen van ons. Na 3 films ( 9 uur vliegen) kwamen we eindelijk aan in een super mooie luchthaven met aquariums, watervallen,... Nadat we onze bagage verzameld hadden reden we met onze taxi naar het hotel.(ps: we hebben een busje nodig voor al onze bagage:D) Vandaag hebben ons in Vancouver eens laten gaan, eerst zijn we gaan fietsen in het stanley park daar hebben we ons ook even laten gaan op de schommels ( die echt niet comfortabel waren). In de namiddag zijn we gaan .... Shoppen een super lange winkelstraat, [View Full Entry]

A stunning drive through the Rockies

North America » Canada » British Columbia

Gorgeous!

In the Rockies everywhere you look the scenery is amazing. It was a great idea to have a hire car. The roads are wide and hardly anyone on them. We saw so much over the 6 days and were there at such a perfect time. The Autumn leaves were really gorgeous. There were so many yellows lining the lakes and rivers and yet so many green fir trees - they even grow in rocks. The road passes huge snow capped mountains and lines rivers. We were on lookout for wildlife the whole time. We saw elks, bears, deers, and a wolf, [View Full Entry]

out on the Tundra

Hi All! Just a quick note to say hello from Churchill, Manitoba. The snow yesterday stayed somewhat over the day. Although the day temps are warm enough to make it melt still. I saw my first polar bear last week from a Tundra Buggy. And we picked Dave up from the lodge during our tour. The gift shop is in full swing serving tourists from all over the world. Tourists, as well as people working at the port. They are getting ready to leave Churchill in the next 2 weeks as the port closes for the season. Ships will not be [View Full Entry]

The good times roll on

North America » Canada » British Columbia » Vancouver

House dinner

Well I’ve had another awesome few weeks in North America. Highlight of the past fortnight was a trip to Seattle and Portland to see Sigur Ros, my ‘weird Icelandic band’. Taking my gig addiction to a new level, I travelled down to Seattle on Saturday morning and spent a day and a half sight seeing and then on Sunday night it was the first of three Sigur Ros concerts, in three nights in three cities. The morning after the Seattle concert I then headed to Portland for the second concert and early the morning after that it was a full day’s [View Full Entry]

Circa Nightclub

North America » Canada » Ontario » Toronto

circa4

For one of my new friends birthdays we all went to Circa nightclub. This was a different way of travelling than we usually do in the UK- by stretch hummer. The club itself is huge and has escalators to each floor, with different types of music on each floor. I would recomment that if you are in Toronto , to check it out. Email them first to get on the get guest list ( saves time queing). It was a great night ! [View Full Entry]

Bon Voyage
Off to explore the universe....

Hello and welcome to my new travel blog. I haven't gone anywhere yet, but I'm getting pretty close. I have done a good job of getting rid of pretty well all my belongings. No cars, no sofas, no apartment, no stuff, nomad. This is my first post, and essentially a test post, welcome. [View Full Entry]

Niagara

North America » Canada » Ontario » Niagara Falls

niagara

As part of our long weekend, we drove to Niagara falls. We got a free room upgrade from the hotel and had a falls view of the actual horseshoe falls. By the time we got there and were ready to go out, it was pretty late. We walked across the strip and went to the R Lounge for drinks( lounge bar that overlooks the river and falls) and had some nice local wine and tapas ( Niagara does fantastic wine due to the climate of the area). After a few drinks in the local bars, we went late night gamlbling [View Full Entry]

The Making of an Adventure

North America » Canada » Ontario » Barrie

Fjords of Saguenay

11 more days to go! Our backpacks are packed, we've said some of our goodbyes, still a few last minute details to iron out - but we're almost there. After years of planning, it almost seems surreal - I don't think it will set in that we're really going, we're really doing this until we are half-way across the country. Initially, our plan was to go to Australia and travel around for a year on a Working Holiday Visa. Once we started looking into this, we heard more and more about how interesting New Zealand is, and decided we wanted to [View Full Entry]
